Bobcats, we are excited to introduce Jessica Hudec as a new teacher!
"Hello! I’m Jessica Hudec, and I’m thrilled to be joining the Bobcat family as a first-grade teacher!
I grew up in Green Forest and have lived in Philadelphia, Savannah, and Hawaii, but eventually made my way back to Arkansas. My two youngest children attend Berryville and stay busy with sports—Go Bobcats! My oldest recently earned her bachelor’s degree from the College of Charleston. My path to teaching began while I was substitute teaching — I quickly discovered that it was more than just a job; it was a passion. I then worked as a paraprofessional alongside some truly inspiring educators while completing my own bachelor’s degree in elementary education.I’m excited to bring my energy and love of learning to the classroom. I can’t wait to grow and learn alongside my students this year!" Welcome, Jessica!

Berryville High School's AP results are AWESOME! 205 tests were administered to students in May of 2025 and 153 of those students scored a 3 or higher. This is a 74% overall pass rate for Berryville. All of Mr. Matt Sayer's Government students passed the assessment (100%) and Mr. Boone Hooker had similar results with Drawing, 3D Art, and 2D Art at a 100% pass rate. Congratulations to the AP students and staff for a job well done!

Timothy Ingram is now a Bobcat!
"Hey y’all! My name is Timothy Ingram, and I’m a new middle school Science and Physical Education teacher as well as the defensive line, head 7th grade football, and head wrestling coach for Berryville. I am originally from Hector, Arkansas, I graduated from Arkansas Tech University in May of 2024, and I spent my first year teaching and coaching in Lonoke, Arkansas. I learned so much from the amazing educators and coaches at Lonoke School District and I will always be grateful for their mentorship and guidance through my first year. I married my beautiful wife in December, and we have two cats together. We enjoy discussing random history facts, playing card games, and spending time with family. We have really loved Berryville in a way neither of us expected. This community has gone out of their way to make us feel welcome, and we are eager to get involved and return the favor. I’m looking forward to a great school year and lots of Bobcat victories! Go Bobcats!"

"Hey y’all! My name is Necole Toombs, and I’m so excited to be teaching third grade this year! My husband, Alex, and I live on a farm in Berryville with our three amazing kids—Lynli, Logan, and Annie. I grew up in Springdale and graduated from the University of Arkansas with a degree in Fashion Merchandising.

Justin Ellis is now a Bobcat! "My name is Justin Ellis and I’m from Marked Tree, Arkansas. I’m the new Offensive Coordinator and Head Track & Field Coach, and I will be teaching high school PE. This will be my 5th year coaching high school football. I spent my last 2 years with the traditional powerhouse Rivercrest High School football program. I have nothing but love and praise for all the coaches, and all the players I’ve coached there. I’m a huge Arkansas Razorback, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Dallas Cowboys fan. My favorite Razorback football game I’ve ever been to was the Texas game in 2021, and my favorite basketball game was Kentucky @ home in 2022. My favorite Thunder game is in the picture, which was my first home game in Oklahoma City for game 1 of the NBA Finals. I’m also pretty big into the UFC, fishing, and I’m looking to pick up golf. In my spare time, I enjoy watching my favorite teams play, various leisure activities, and spending time with my girlfriend, friends, and family. I’m extremely excited and blessed to be apart of the Berryville family, and looking forward to contributing to a successful season. Go Bobcats! "
